AYURVEDA PERSPECTIVE ON ANAL ITCHING

Anal itching implies irritation or inflammation near the anus. This is often due to candida, pinworms, or hemorrhoids, but may indicate other parasites as well.

Candida & Parasites

Sweet foods may aggravate candida symptoms and parasites in the gut. For parasites, favor bitter greens, and consider taking some herbs to cleanse your body of candida or parasites. It is not advised to cleanse unless you are sure you have parasites, so consider getting a test.

Hemorrhoids

Constipation can irritate hemorrhoids, causing increased inflammation and discomfort. Mild laxatives, easy-to-digest foods, and adequate hydration will help keep constipation under control.

HOW TO ADDRESS ISSUES IN STAGE OF DISEASE #2

ANAL ITCHING IS IN STAGE OF DISEASE #2 - AFFECTING BLOOD & EMOTIONS

Affecting Blood: Initially, imbalances are localized, often in the digestive tract. As an imbalance grows, it starts to affect your body systemically, via the blood. If you have symptoms in this category it means that your imbalances are starting to spread, have entered the bloodstream, and are now systemic. Pay particular attention to the biocharacteristics, tastes, and doshas out of balance systemically, so you know how to strengthen your body as a whole, and reduce physical stress on your organs. At this stage of imbalance you will begin to experience generalized discomfort, imbalanced emotions, and may develop sensitivities to temperature. It may take several weeks of strict adherence to a specific remedial diet to clear blood level imbalances. Blood cleansing herbs may reduce symptoms. A several day cleanse may shorten the recovery time. (See all disease stages on JB)
